Ms Naughty looks at porn for women, feminism and sex in general
Fans of women’s erotica pioneer Candida Royalle will be pleased to know she has two new films in the works. The last release from Candida’s Femme films was 2005’s Caribbean Heat, which was directed by Manuela Sabrosa and produced by Candida. I spoke to her via email the other day and got the good news about the new movies, but have no further details about when they will be released, Read More …
With the release of the new Casanova movie, I’ve been musing about the appeal of sex scenes with horsehair wigs. I’m a sucker for costume porn. If it looks all sweeping and romantic, I’m there. Maybe it’s the lush sets, or maybe it’s the whole Fanny Hill thing. Either way, I like it. And the real Casanova sounds like quite a decent bloke, despite some of his nefarious indescretions. He’s Read More …
Ah, freedom of the press. Seems that hot pic of Kevin Talley got a number of people hot and bothered, and they complained to the Journal. And it turns out that columnist Pam Platt agrees with the poor unfortunate souls who thought that the artistic and discreet almost-nude photo was “distasteful.” “I think we have to carefully pick the occasions when we push the envelope of taste, and to make Read More …
It’s Sunday, I should be having a day off. Instead I’ve been watching dirty movies to review them, occasionally switching them off to check the cricket score. I’ve been using headphones connected to the TV so the rest of the neighbourhood doesn’t have to hear “Nnnyeah, uh, mmm…” (slap slap slap) – or the cricket score for that matter. I’ve found that I can save time (and become less bored) Read More …
I wrote a Valentine’s Day themed illustrated story today. It’s here: Valentine’s Day. Even though it’s erotic fiction, it’s really just a traditional romantic story. There’s flowers, declarations of love, outpourings of emotion. And, of course, intimate, vanilla sex. And you know, I felt almost guilty writing this story. I felt as if it wasn’t raunchy enough; that it was somehow less sexy because our heroine and hero don’t push Read More …
XBiz reports that Wicked has teamed up with PlaygirlTV in a distribution deal. The first film that Wicked will distribute on DVD is “Private Pleasures” with a second title, “Burning Lust” due out in March. Previously PlaygirlTV’s movies were only available via their cable channel. If Wicked is doing the distribution, this may mean that the films become easily obtainable via the large online adult stores. At present I can’t Read More …
Seems that I missed “Penis Week” on Britain’s Channel 4. They offered three documentaries focusing on the wedding tackle: The Perfect Penis, Chopped Off: The Man Who Lost His Penis (about John Bobbit), and The World’s Biggest Penis. Heckler Spray gives a hilarious review of the third documentary, which mainly focuses on the extradinarily well-hung Jonah Falcon. An excerpt: “Fact fans will be interested to note that your average penis Read More …
The Times has an advice column about women liking gay porn. The sage wisdom is offered by two individuals in this case, Suzi Godson and the unusually named Dr Thomas Stuttaford. Suzi comes across all relaxed and cheerful about women liking gay porn. Her thoughts on the appeal to straight women are simple, and well-put: “In comparison with the podgy Swedish bloke with a blonde mullet and the ageing alcoholic Read More …
The Courier Journal of Louisville, Kentucky, has an interesting interview with former Playgirl model Kevin Talley. In December 2005 Kevin was voted by readers as Playgirl’s Man of the Year after appearing in an original centerfold spread in April. Unfortunately for female fans, Kevin got divorced, drunk, depressed, and subsequently found Jesus in the interim months. He has now turned down the offer to be man of the year, with Read More …
Ah, this is such a funny photo. This chick is just so happy to be sitting on the bald head of a sexy black guy. She looks so damned comfortable, and he seems to be cheerfully resigned to the fact that he’s now on par with a sofa. It always makes me want to sing: “Sit on my face and tell me that you love me, I’ll sit on your Read More …
Robert Jensen’s opinion piece The Paradox of Pornography asks a number of important questions. Jensen asks why porn’s extremity and focus on degradation has increased with it’s popularity. He is mainly focusing on the nasty, over-the-top stuff like reality sites that I myself find offensive. Jensen suggests that a lot of men focus on the sexual pleasure involved and tune out any negative messages about degredation or gender. But he Read More …
XBiz reports that sex columnist and ass-afficionado Tristan Taormino has launched her own adult film production company Smart Ass Productions. Tristan’s previous forays into porn movies are The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women 1 and 2. both of which were based on her book of the same name. Being the queen of all things anal we can probably assume that Tristan’s movies will have a fair bit of Read More …
There’s a post at the Smart Girl’s Porn Club by Sarah about the book Pornified by Pamela Paul. Sarah says: “She lists of the reasons that Pro-Porn fems aren’t really feminists at all, and why they don’t really get the dark truth about porn: They only view the soft stuff, the Candida Royalle collections, the womens erotica shelf. They are brainwashed by the patriarchy and the media to think that Read More …
Several major news outlets, including MSNBC have reported on the controversial exhibition in Memphis by techno-metal artist Ira Sherman called “Impenetrable Devices.” Ira has created a variety of wearable metal objects that are essentially chastity belts mixed with body armor. The belts feature barbed wire, mousetraps, electrified metal, razors and – eep! – “cutlery functions”. He was inspired to make the items after talking with women who had been raped. Read More …
I’m editing a story written by a smut monkey. More specifically, a while ago we purchased a collection of erotic stories that were most likely written by one of ten million horny monkeys with ten million typewriters. The stories themselves can be quite sexy, but the writing is absolutely dreadful. The writer – I won’t do her the honour of naming her – obviously fancied herself to be an erotic Read More …
